Mecca Restaurant

Absolutely loved it. Best lamb I've ever had. And the meat & hummus was divine. We got the mixed platter, which was more than enough to feed a family of 4 adults plus one large, adult-sized child. Highly recommend.

My forever dining partner and I made our way to the west side today for lunch as he was craving some yummy shawarma. This little restaurant is inside the Mecca Grocery Store which has loads of fantastic goodies (take some time to look around -- we found pomegranate molasses!) when I ordered the hummus with meat, I fully expected it to be a small plate and I was pleasantly mistaken! This plate of hummus was absolutely massive, and easily enough for 2-3 people. The meat was perfectly spiced and cooked. The hummus was very tahini forward, and while delicious a bit too much for my tastes. My forever dining partner said the shawarma was a bit dry, but really nicely flavored! The absolute show stopper was the Yemini style bread! It was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Absolute perfection!! Can't wait to go back!

If you're looking for a hole in a shop (and a wall) this is the place. Shawarma was good, but not of the Levantine style unfortunately - so if you're seeking your classic pickled turnips or peppers, it's not included. You will have some spice, and a beautiful side of thoum (garlic sauce). Fries were delicious, hummus good ; the meat bursting with flavor. We definitely enjoyed their bread - Arabian peninsula style with crispy exterior fluffy interior! Go up to the window and order if you're trying to eat in.

Y'all. Do not overlook this place in your food hunt. It's inside a grocery store and definitely an experience, but worth every bit of it. The waitress/cook was super helpful and made sure to let us know that the food we ordered (hummus with meat and something I don't remember the name of) was finger food but she would bring us some spoons since we were first timers we didn't use them at all and enjoyed our pita "utensils" greatly. Our friends got some lamb and rice and loved that. If we were local we would go all the time. Amazing and not to be missed.

Great fahsha and hummus! Probably best in the city. You can go to some other places that are nicer looking, but you're missing out. Anytime an ethnic grocery store has an attached restaurant.. it's about to be good eating time.

I love coming here not only can I pick up some household favorites like the almond biscuits and delicious baklava, I can enjoy a tasty halal meal. I've been here probably a total of 5 times and every time but once has been incredible. I normally get the hummus which is finished with olive oil, sumac and parsley. Comes with fresh warm naan ...Amazing! I love the veggie saltah, it comes in a steaming hot clay pot and sizzles in its perfection. When I say it brings memories of childhood back, I mean it. My grandpa used to cook a dish similar using similar spices. My favorite for sure. We've have the fried fish and it's delicious as well. All I can say is try something new, you won't be disappointed. Also-Keep in mind this food takes time to prepare and to cook, so I recommend allowing yourself time. Good things come to those who wait.

The falafel wrap is amazing and the ingredients taste very fresh, I highly recommend ordering it. The Mendi Lamb is quite good, the rice is savory and comes with a generous portion of lamb. The meat is quite fatty and I felt that it could use more seasoning, but overall it was a good dish. The restaurant is located in a Middle Eastern grocery store, and it's a typical hole in the wall eatery with a fast food/diner vibe. I would come back again for takeout.

The food was delicious and great .The prices were decent ,I liked the fact that they have private rooms which is reminds me of Yemen.A great place to eat while I'm establishing my business around here .

I am a foodie from the Bay Area and my food standard is pretty high. This might be the best restaurant in Indiana so far that I've been to. Will be making the hour trip back over there again. Ordered the chicken shawarma it was loaded with chicken and the fahsa (lamb in a clay pot). Also loaded. Didn't take any pictures but the food was sooooo good. I hope they keep it up.

Grilled chicken is on point. The staff were all very friendly and helped with figuring out what to order on the menu
